states that the improvement Conn

THE Aavocatc has special cause to
desire to defeat the reelection Of
Prot. G. F. Willcutt to the office Of
county superintendent. 1t is in a
good deal OF stress over the extreme
probability Of that result Of the en-
preston of the peoples wishes at the
pslls. The following is from that
paper of this week:
Extravaganza in public office de.
serves rebuke. G. F. Willcutt,
county superintendent, who seeks
reelection, paid r. H. Frost, OF
Cass county, for eight days service
Sic. This makes the very hand
some sum of $I3.75 per day. The
records bear out the above state
nent, and it strikes us as being
pretty extravagant.
1t is false in statement, tenor and
implication. Prof. Frost was IN the
institute two weeks, or ten days in
stead Of eight, as stated. He was
paid $IIo for his services. The de-
sired implication Of the above item
is that the tax payers have to pay
the instructors. The fact is, it is paid
from the institute fund, raised by the
teachers, none Of whom have
ever complained about the amounts
paid. w. II. BrinkerhoH was paid
$l25 for his services in the institute.
II the price were eXorbitant, and
Mr.. Brinkerhoff accepted it, would
he not in the hapless event OF his
election, with free access to the sew
eral funds, be equally exorbitant and
and extravaganza?

days Of his incumbency Of the sup.
erintendent's Office, expended more
in one year, out of the fund paid by
taxpayers than has Willcutt Prof

THE republican and democratic
state central committees have res
reetfully declined to arrange joint
discussions between their respective
candidates for lieutenant governor
and the union labor candidate for
the same office. They have acted
wisely in this as no selfrespecting
man could afford to subject himself
to the Billingsgate, blasphemy and
rot that issues from Sovereign's
mouth whenever he can secure an
audience. In his own cause his au-
diences are slime, and neither party
should invest him with the dignity a
joint discussion would imply.

Indebted Republicanisna

The Iowa Republicans can al.
ways be depended upon to say some
thing that has the true ring Of Re-
publicanism about it. In Iowa tho
questions Of free ballot, universal
education, National authority, and
protection to home industry are
never counted as s'dead issues" Ies.
tcrday all Iowa was vocal to pure
and indebted Republican sentiment.

Allison, to whom the vote of the
state is due and will be gladly given as
a candidate for the Presidency, the
efficient present and future Governor

tenant Governor Hull, United States
Senator Wilson, and a host OF others
less known but equally fervent, and
it may be equally able, champions
of an American policy, opened the
State campaign in due form and with
vigor that gives assurance Of victory.
They have material enough for
the commencement of an aggressive
campaign, and are quick and skillful
to use it. The civil.scrvice law,
which was passed by Republican
majority and approved by a Repub.
lican President is in constant process
OF violation. The protective tariff,
under operation of which the wealth
of the Nation has increased as it
never increased under Democratic
legislation, under which the price
of labor has gone up and the price
of what labor needs for its sustcnance
or comfort has gone down is threat.
ened by the Democratic majority n,

adverse to the policy Of the Prcsi-
dent. The necessary but dangerous
power of veto has been used by the
President now in office more fire..

able loyalty is denied admission to
statehood simply as apuniShment for
for its RcpubIicauism. Political re-

states formerly in rebellion. These
constitute serious charges against the
patty in power, and they are one
and all sus ,eptiblc Of pro #.
On the other hand are the unani-
nous pledges of progress made in
the platforms OF all the states in
which the Republican party has held
conventions; pledges whose good
faith is amply guaranteed by the
history of the party that now offers
them. In fact, Republicanism has
nothing to abjure, nothing to make
apology for; it has only to ask for
time and opportunity to complete
the great work which it has in
part nobly achieved.-Inter Ocean
